What the book is about:
 
At the age of nineteen Phil was in a near death diving situation that made him re-evaluate his life and since that time he has tried to wring the most out of life.This Book is a guide for anyone wanting to experience more out of life. Split into eight sections including Facing your Fear, Testing your limits and Rediscovering your Childhood it addresses the excuses that we use to limit pursuing new experiences.

We are provided with examples of how others have pursued the items on their life lists as well as plans to compile our own list

 
Would I buy this book:

YES

 
 
Handy as a paperback to keep with you as a reminder to get over yourself.
 
What I liked about this book:
 
I liked the premise that you are never to old to try new experiences.Initially I thought it was going to be just another one of those books that aims to motivate through examples of how others have succeeded.

I felt the fact that it gave a step by step guide to setting personal life lists made it a more accessible for a wider audience. I definitely used it to create my list.

 
What I thought could have been improved in this book:
 
The content was good but I found the layout of the book a little annoying.I could see where they where going interspersing examples of how others had succeeded in the individual sections but the shading and placement of the explanations interrupted the feel of the book a bit for me.
